The 24-Hour Wine Expert by Jancis Robinson
Many wine drinkers wish they knew more without having to understand every nuance or go to expensive wine tastings. In her new book, Jancis Robinson, the leading international authority on wine, grants the wishes of would-be wine experts the world over. With The 24-Hour Wine Expert, anyone can learn all that is really important about wine in a single day. In her pithy, approachable, comprehensive guide, Robinson shares her expertise with authority, wit, and approachability, tackling questions such as how to select the right bottle at retail, what wine labels signify, how to understand the properties of color and aroma, and how to match food and wine. Robinson&;s proposition is irresistible: In just 24 hours, anyone can become a wine expert. So pour a glass and get reading! Note: the simulated wine stains on the cover of the book are a design element and are intentional.
